Personal Statement

Personal Statement:

Taking the first step toward getting help is often the most difficult. And I applaud you now for exploring how best psychotherapy can help yourself get un-stuck with the emotional wounds from relationship issues, crisis, scars of the past, and difficulties facing life’s challenges. You are then going to the path of creating change and establishing greater awareness of your potential. When we feel safe and understood we are better able to confront our past by making meaningful changes in the present. The combination of these experiences increases our self-mastery and ability to change and grow.
As your therapist, I offer my skills of collaboratively defining and setting your goals to manage personal situations and make changes, and working on this together, in a supportive, nurturing and safe environment. I work with my clients to transform challenges they face into experiences they can understand, learn from, and build upon.
I have extensive clinical experience and enjoy working with couples, adults, children and families. I continue to be instrumental as a facilitator, educator and supporter of positive change using an interactive, collaborative and solution-focused approach. I have honed my skills and experiences in the areas of trauma and crisis counseling, relationship enhancement, dealing with depression, anxiety, psychosis, life transitions, intercultural/intermarriage issues, women’s issues, parenting, etc. using mainly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Brief Solution Focused Therapy, and Relationship Enhancement (RE) for Couples.

Bennett Portnoy, MA

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Los Angeles, CA 90064

I have helped hundreds of couples recognize the hidden obstacles that cause pain in their relationship and learn the skills needed to deepen the quality of their relationship as well as resolve conflict. For over twenty five years I have been working with heterosexual and gay couples. I do not believe in a one -size- fits- all approach to therapy.
